However, the demands and pressures of hero life eventually wear Supergirl down, and she wants to be a normal woman again.

Right like he predicted, shortly afterwards the Legion turns to Supergirl because they need extra Kryptonian firepower to fight Darkseid.
-->'''Superman:''' What I'm trying to remind her of is that our powers place us in a certain position. And it's one of obligation. No one on Earth can do what we can, and very often, to protect it and other planets, we are required to do everything we're capable of.

* BreakTheBadass: Every hero's reaction to learning Darkseid is finally going ahead with his master plan is a massive "Oh, Crap". Previously, Darkseid barged in a super-villain gathering, killed Brainiac with one single blast, and Lex Luthor, who had been previously bickering over leadership, suddenly decided he was happy with following orders.

But she lost her parents and her entire civilization when she was fifteen, and then she spent the next fourteen years fighting criminals, super-villains and eldritch monsters. As a result of it, she is a perpetual fish out of water who has no real friends, is unable to have long-lasting relationships, is sick of endless battles and is on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
* BrokenBird: Kara, who lost her parents and her whole civilization when she was fifteen, and spent the next decade and one half fighting super-villains and cosmic beings. She is rather bitter about her unability to live a normal life or form any lasting relationships due to the ceaseless conflict, but she still helps to fight evil whenever she is needed.
* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: Everybody knows what "S" stands for Superman and Supergirl's chest emblems. When the Source wants to warn the New Gods that they'll need to recruit both cousins in order to triumph over Darkseid, it merely draws two twin "S" letters on the air.

* SuperToughness: Supergirl can shrug an exploding star off. Yet still, when she punches Darkseid in the face with one of her super-strong blows, he just ''takes'' it.
-->She sped towards him again, ducking under the twin eye-blasts that came from him, and rocked his world with an uppercut that would have taken off the top of a mountain. To his credit, Darkseid was tough enough to take it, but went off his pins again.

* AchilesHeel: Galactic Golem's only weak point is the radiation-leaking white starbust on his head. He can be defeated by hitting that spot, but the puncher may not survive the resulting chain reaction and subsequent explosion.
-->Brother Baldhead had found a way of putting galactic matter together into a living being, a huge, eight-foot semi-Frankenstein with blue-black skin dotted over with starbursts, programming its mind to do what he wanted, and sending it against Superman. The Golem lived on what Luthor termed "galactic energy", which power boosted his considerably beyond Superman’s. In their first encounter, Kal had learned that bashing the white starburst on the Golem’s forehead would have exploded it, but would also have destroyed a good part of the city and possibly the state if he had done so.

* AttackItsWeakPoint: Galactic Golem's only weak point is the energy white starburst on his forehead, but hitting it will result in a humongous explosion. Supergirl, Power Girl and Superboy get around this by wrapping the Golem up in their indestructible capes before Supergirl punches his forehead. Her blow sets off a chain reaction but their capes contain the blast.
-->"Who in Sheol was that, K? Blue Frankenstein, or something?" asked Power Girl, rubbing her arms.\\
"The Galactic Golem," Kara replied. "He’s an old enemy of Superman’s, an energy being. That white star on his head was his Achilles heel. I just had to gamble that our capes could contain the blast. Thanks, both of you, and I mean that."
